At the matches of the final stage of the top division of Grandliiga,, among the teams of the first four, which begin on September 22, the video assistance system for referees VAR will work. The decision was made by the Organizing Committee on the eve of the beginning of the final stage!

The VAR system introduced back in the 2020/21 Futsal Championship Grandliiga has established itself as a good tool, since the team has the opportunity to refer to the system if it doubts the referee's decision, in such episodes as: goal scoring, episodes with penalties, straight red card and misidentification.
